Abstract

The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic caused many companies to shutdown leading to unprecedented economic turmoil in most sectors in Nigeria. Businesses in Nigeria faced many short-term problems, such as health and safety challenges, the supply chain, the workforce, cash flow, customer demand, revenue and marketing. This paper argued that the good management of these problems would not ensure a bright future. This is because, after Nigeria has been through this pandemic, the country will emerge in a very different environment than the one before the epidemic. Organizational roles are directed at prioritizing and minimizing investment or postponing activities that would not add benefit to the new post-pandemic setting. This paper therefore suggested that the path forward be for Nigerians is to accept, adapt, and use information media technologies as one of the various avenues to effectively tackle the post-Covid-19 challenges by engaging online communication, online entertainment, and online shopping, which are seeing unprecedented growth in people's social and economic activities. Key words: Covid-19 pandemic, short-term threats, ICTs.
